Been in a Neptune Suite on Maasdam Recently?

[cp556]

Are they still providing the little white slippers? DH is packing right now and is counting on them, so enquiring minds need to know ... :)

 

Thank you....

[sail7seas]

Yes, all our cruises on Maasdam in Neptune Suite, we have gotten slippers.

If for some reason you don't get them by second day, speak with your steward and/or concierge.

They are great to wear with your bathrobe to breakfast. ;)

Particularly if you are enjoying Room Service Breakfast on your verandah. ;) :D

 

[Krazy Kruizers]

Neither of us use the slippers as they are too thin and have no support.

I do use the slippers at times - especially for the verandah if it is still wet from washing - and yes they are still there - never fear:D

 

Have a great cruise - I will be forever grateful to you for your info that you were kind enough to share on SB and SC categories:):)

hmmmm I've brought the slippers home for my guest room. I go barefoot in the suite and to the Neptune lounge. More than one of the concierges loved the fact that I felt so at home to go barefoot. And others followed my example. I expect a lot of 'germ o phobes' to chime in on this. However, I've gone bare foot for more than 65 years and not gotten any horrible disease from that.

I look froward to those slippers. Unfortunately, on the Amsterdam in June, the supply was not delivered and we didn't get them. At first when we did not get them, I assumed another cutback but when asked the steward, he said supply not delivered.

I use the slippers - sometimes. DH, not so much. But it's that "white rag" they put my slippers on each night next to the bed that drives me nuts! :rolleyes: What purpose is that supposed to serve - except to be something for me to trip over. We remove them immediately. After a couple of days the cabin steward gets the hint.

We even got slippers in our lowly SY suite :D

We had the little white slippers in our Cat. B Verandah on Maasdam in September.

The minute we get back to the cabin in the evening, the first thing DH does is to remove that white foot "mats" -- so that we don't trip over them as well.

[SJSULIBRARIAN]

The white footmats are another item we did not have onthe Amsterdam in June. I didn't ask about those as I don't care for them either. Have they been on other ships in recent months?

[Krazy Kruizers]

Yes -- we had them on the Westerdam in March/April.

unless I missed something, the OP wanted to know if they were available ..

 

nothing more

One question I have on the S cabins. I notice on some cabin photos where some bathrooms were updated. Would think that all of the S cabins are updated by now. Has anyone on a recent Maasdam cruise in a Neptune suites still notice the older style bathroom decor.

Thank you SO much. DH loves those slippers, for some reason, and now he's smiling.

 

And thanks for the kind words, too. Now *I* am smiling, too!

Well, I can let you know in a couple of days :)

The bathrooms in Neptune Suites on Maasdam were updated at her drydock some two or so years ago. However, there are at least a few cabins that got new floors, wall tiles, counter and added the wall to wall shelf beneath the sink but did not get a new tub. :rolleyes: They replaced many (most ?) of the Neptune Suite tubs but not all.

Take those slippers home to Canada when we visit. Canadians remove their shoes at the front door, my husband prefers his feet covered (I like bare foot) so they are ideal for him.:D

Sail, when the tubs were replaced, do the new ones have lower sides? The original tubs on S-Class ships have really high sides (to me) and this short-legged person has a challenge getting in and out easily.

Those tub sides are so high if I was traveling solo I would have to get a cabin with a shower. I'm not short but getting in and out of those tubs without help is dangerous. Easy to slip and fall

I don't know if the new tubs have lower sides as the cabin we always book is one that still has the old, high sided tub.

 

On a turn around day one of our b-to-b's, I looked in another suite bathroom but truly don't remember if the sides are lower. I suspect they are.

I've asked this separately but since you all have been in a Neptune suite on Maasdam I wonder if you can tell me which area is the least noisy from deck right above? The ones more forward are under pool and ones mid and aft are under Lido.

 

I even heard someone complain about hearing basketball late and that would be more aft.

 

I've been under a 24 hr Pizza area before and will NEVER intentionally book under a noisy area again -- especially for what the Neptunes cost compared to regular balcony.........the amenities are so nice though! ;)

 

Thanks if any of you are around to respond............

Travelingla, this thread is almost a year old, just keep that in mind.
